4-lane divided 50MPH. I was in left lane passing a couple of cars.
Third lane on right is an exit. Signaled, changed to next right lane and noticed car flying up in far right exit lane, then getting behind me and slamming on brakes and laying on horn. She evidently wanted the space I just took instead of exiting.
She then went to left lane, came around then slipped right in front of me and brake checked.
I tapped her enough to put a dimple in her bumper and scraped my truck bumper.
I ain’t stopping.
Took ramp to interstate and she proceeded to tailgate me at 70MPH.
I exited, she went on.
I called police and insurance.

At 5 ft I find it hard to believe that you can get around the car in front of you without backing up. Driver instruction 101, but you probably don't care about that.
Maybe the OP thinks it would have been a better idea to give more room after the fact
